This is a Global Player Original podcast.

Hello Mark.

Hello, Gabby. How are you?

I'm very well.

We're here to tell you all about our new podcast.

It's called The Sports Agents.

And the idea behind it is there are so many stories that go on behind the scenes in sports.

So not analysing what goes on on the pitch or on a court or on the

track, but so many interesting people doing so many interesting things away from the actual

arenas and we want to get stuck into that. The Sports Agents with Gabby Logan and Mark Chapman.

We've had over 50 years broadcasting experience in sport between us.

Between us.

I've known a very, very long time.

And I think we're both passionate about sport and its impact on society and the stories that emanate.

But we don't always get a chance to discuss those things in our day jobs.

No, we don't. And also, we work in the same sports, but we also work in different sports.

And I also think what's interesting when you do that is lots of sports like to learn from other

sports or pick up anecdotes from other sports. For example, the blue card story in football.

Yeah. And rugby's obviously had a simbin for a long time and is often quoted as that.

So it's how they feed into each other with intelligence in terms of branding and marketing, how they learn in terms of galvanising audiences.

All of that stuff is fascinating.

So we hope to have some really big guests with us.
